HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE BI E
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
To adjust the position of

hole, and firmly tighten
the adjustment knob.
Make sure that the adjustment knob is engaged in

proper height. As you pedal, there should be a slight
bend in your knees when the pedals are in the lowest
position.
To adjust the height of
the seat post, first loosen
the adjustment knob and
pull it outward. Move the
seat post upward or
downward to the desired
position, release the
adjustment knob into an
adjustment hole, and

ment knob. Make sure

ment hole in the seat post.

To increase the resis-
tance of the pedals, turn
the resistance knob
